Hi Andy Smerdon.
It is my understanding that you are facing difficulty in restoring the focus back to "uitable" after "CellEditCallBack" is executed. To resolve this issue, you can use the "uicontrol" function to set the focus back to the "uitable" after the calculation is performed. Here is an example for the same:
function uitable1_CellEditCallback(hObject, eventdata)
row = eventdata.Indices(1);
hObject.Data(row, 3) = hObject.Data(row, 2) - hObject.Data(row, 1);
% Set focus back to the uitable
uicontrol(hObject);
end
By calling uicontrol(hObject), the focus will be set back to the "uitable" after the calculation is done, allowing you to continue entering values.
Regarding the scrolling to the next row and skipping the calculated cell in column 3 when tabbing from column 2, you can achieve this by implementing a custom "KeyPressFcn" for the "uitable". Here is an example for the same:
function uitable1_KeyPressFcn(hObject, eventdata)
if strcmp(eventdata.Key, 'tab')
% Get current cell position
currentPosition = hObject.CurrentCell;
currentRow = currentPosition(1);
currentCol = currentPosition(2);
% Calculate next cell position
nextRow = currentRow + 1;
nextCol = currentCol;
% Skip column 3 if tabbing from column 2
if currentCol == 2
nextCol = currentCol + 1;
end
% Scroll to the next cell
hObject.CurrentCell = [nextRow, nextCol];
end
end
In this example, the "KeyPressFcn" of the "uitable" is used to detect the tab key press. If the tab key is pressed, it calculates the position of the next cell based on the current cell position. If tab key is pressed from column 2, it skips column 3 and moves to the next row. Finally, it scrolls to the next cell by setting "hObject.CurrentCell" to the desired position.
Make sure to assign the "KeyPressFcn" callback to your "uitable" in the GUIDE interface by selecting the "uitable", going to the Property Inspector, and setting the "KeyPressFcn" property to the name of your callback function
You can refer to the following documentation to know more about the functions used:
